Lee Takes a Big One To Push Past 400,000

Level 10 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Jun Obara and Gyeongbyeong Lee were involved in a big pot going to the river on a board of {7-Spades}{J-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}. With already over 130,000 chips in the pot, Lee led out, betting 30,000. Obara dropped into the tank and thinking through the hand. It took him nearly two minutes but eventually he decided to call.

Lee showed {Q-Hearts}{Q-Clubs} and it was good as Obara mucked.

"Did you have ace-jack?" Lee asked after the hand. A frustrated Obara said nothing while Lee collected the pot and pushed past 400,000 chips.
